A BUSHFIRE near Sevenhill in the Clare Valley, north of Adelaide, continues to burn inside control lines.

The CFS has advised the fire could escape control lines and residents should implement their bushfire survival plan.

"There are hotspots and embers still present and crews will be in attendance to extinguish these throughout the day," a spokesman said. "Smoke is still emanating from the fireground and fire crews are working in and around the following roads - Willow Glean Road, Hughes Park Road and Cambell Road.

"For the safety of fire crews the public is requested to only access the area if required and if possible avoid the area, as visibility may be reduced."
